In order to accomplish that at present, we'd have to do a hostile takeover of the Free Software Foundation.
And the downside of doing that would be?
If this principle works -- couldn't we change the terms of use? That is, instead of every edit being licenseable under the GFDL, couldn't we change it to say that "this contribution, and any other contribution I have previously made, is licenseable under the GFDL or any other similarly 'free' license"? It wouldn't necessarily get *all* of the content out of the GFDL but, if we assume that many of the editors now were editors previously, it would potentially "free up" a very large amount of content.
Derivative works. One editor per article would be enough to really mess things up.
